The Brooks-Shelf: A Geraldine Brooks Book Discussion Group

Geraldine Brooks is coming to Glastonbury in September!  To celebrate, we will be discussing her incredible collection of works through a series of book discussions.  Limited copies of the current selection will be available at the Lending Desk. Registration is not required; light refreshments will be served.

This week we're reading: "Year of Wonders"

When an infected bolt of cloth carries plague from London to an isolated village, a housemaid named Anna Frith emerges as an unlikely heroine and healer. Through Anna's eyes we follow the story of the fateful year of 1666, as she and her fellow villagers confront the spread of disease and superstition.
